> $1.84 billion in value

Correction. $0 in value. Skins do not exist and are worth exactly $0. If you spend money on skins, they are worth… $0. It’s all a large scale grift money incinerator where the only winner is Valve.

+ whatever pleasure you derive from it, ig. I can understand loot box addiction, but paying $20,000 for valve character dress up? Not even like a Peter Griffin player model or something, but a slightly different looking knife? Madness

Persp: tf2 enjoyer





The problem here is that's not only Valve that is a winner (that would be expected and fair as that's their game) but also scam casino operators.
